Michael Cohen‘s closed-door testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee apparently included an apology to the committee members.

Per CNN’s Manu Raju, Cohen addressed the lies he told to the committee in 2017 and apologized:

Michael Cohen today spent fair amount of time explaining the lies he told the Senate Intelligence Committee, per sources. Questioning has been led by staffers – as is practice during witness interviews in committee’s probe. Senators are passing along notes with their questions

Today’s classified hearing before Senate Intel has been professional and Michael Cohen has shown some contrition, I’m told. He even apologized for the lies he told the committee back in 2017, per sources. Publicly, Cohen has said he lied to protect Trump

Cohen, sentenced to three years in prison, is on Capitol Hill this week to testify to multiple committees and is expected to share more information about President Donald Trump. When he was sentenced Cohen said it was his job to cover up Trump’s “dirty deeds.”

Cohen is going to publicly testify before the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday.
